John Berger, author of A Seventh Man and Ways of Seeing, faces questions from Jeremy Isaacs about his life and career. He talks about his 'European voice' and his appeal across a continent that he considers to be 'in flux'. He speaks affectionately about his mother, a former suffragette who had always wanted her child to be a writer, and his father, 'a man so marked by that terrible First World War'.
